I interpret there being allowed a militia, as I think we can all agree. And the right for individuals to bear arms (right of the people to keep and bear arms). I believe that "People" would mean the general public. Firearms should be legal widespread for self-defense until there are few of those who own them illegally. (Until violent crime is lowered significantly.) What for? Defense against fellow citizens, the government, or even a foreign threat. Regardless of whether or not a militia is maintained, people should have the right to weapons. Exclude the lunatics and violent felons- no weapons on government property or in schools, e.t.c. I think it is clear actually, that people should have the right to bear arms. I mean:
"right of the people to keep and bear arms"
Thats my interpretation. What, do you guys interpret people as the same thing as the militia?
And uhh...
